High Quality Accessible Arrangements

“Christmas Music for Guitar” is a book with high quality, accessible arrangements of Christmas music that will appeal to both the intermediate guitarist and the professional musician looking for good material for performance.

For a number of years I played at an island resort and although my repertoire was diverse featuring music from all around the world, I had no Christmas material. It proved difficult finding music that appealed to me, so I started making my own arrangements.

I have always liked Christmas music, but the melodies are often short and an interesting performance usually depends on either a good vocalist, or a creative instrumental setting. I have never been able to sing. It’s one of the reasons I chose to play the lute and guitar. What I needed were good instrumental arrangements.   Price $19.95 with CD
